Stamping Saturday: Mermaid Scales

Stamping Saturday is here once again and today I decided to return to a gradient manicure. I'm happy that my nails have grown this long without breaking, so I wanted to take advantage of that and try a 4 color gradient. As we're packing more seriously now for our move next week, I feel like I'd better shorten them down before a casualty occurs and I'll be left with nubs!

My color choices for the gradient are blue-ish and that determined my stamp - mermaid scales! 

Ocean Gradient with Enchanted Polish

There's a pretty popular mani depicting the beach, and I wanted to try my hand at it. Here is the result!

I've seen this design time and time again, and most recently Alesya over at PhD Nails did her own version, and that convinced me that it's my turn now.

Swatch & Art: Enchanted Polish "April 2015"

Summer is going by, and a lot of my manicure ideas are not getting onto my nails so I want to try to do more arts and get it out of my system so I can transition into fall and not regret all the things I didn't get to do. This swatch is the base of one of those designs I need to cross off my list.

Enchanted Polish - April 2015

If you look closely at the corner of the bottle - you'll notice that this isn't just a plain white polish, there's more to it!

Red, White and Blue - Memorial Day

 I just wanted to share my mani for Memorial Day - unfortunately no sunshine  to show off the holo, but this is such a patriotic color combo that it works well even without the special effect holo would add. Red, White and Blue!

#StampingSaturday: St. Paddy's Greens

This Stamping Saturday I want to show the mani I  wore pretty much all week - and kept adding and evolving it, to finally finish off with a stamped design!

This Revlon Colorstay Rain Forest has been in my collection for a long time..one of those BigLots $1 polishes I picked up sometime and did not reach for after it stained my nails! But with better base coats, and to be honest, lacking a wide green selection - I picked this one to try a St.Patrick's day mani. Can you believe what it turned into!?

#StampingSaturday + Enchanted Polish

It counts as Stamping Saturday if you started last Saturday and then had to wait for decent weather for photos and then make a post the following Saturday...right? Because that's what happened with these!
